Or temperature control part 62 also can be controlled flow control valve 54, so that the chilling temperature of refrigeration machine 14 the 1st grade (or the 2nd grade) changes.Temperature control part 62 also can be controlled the flow control valve corresponding with this refrigeration machine 14 54 according to the running status of certain refrigeration machine 14 wherein.For example, in the time that refrigeration machine 14 starts operation, flow control valve 54 is opened for certain and sets aperture (for example standard-sized sheet), starting in the follow-up stable operation of operation, also flow control valve 54 can be controlled as than its little aperture.
Action to ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10 describes.By the operation of compressor 12, between the main high press fit pipe 42 of gas piping 16 and primary low pipe arrangement 48, be applied with the differential pressure that is equivalent to target differential pressure Δ P.,, when the suction pressure of compressor 12 is expressed as to P, the pressure representative that spues of compressor 12 is P+ Δ P.Therefore the high-pressure working gas that, has pressure P+Δ P exports pressure duct 38 to from compressor 12.High-pressure working gas is dispensed to high pressure indivedual pipe arrangements 46 by main high press fit pipe 42 by high pressure branching portion 44 from compressor 12.When the expanding chamber 34 of refrigeration machine 14 is connected in the indivedual pipe arrangement 46 of high pressure, high-pressure working gas is supplied to expanding chamber 34 from pressure duct 38.
Now, high-pressure working gas is supplied with corresponding refrigeration machine 14 by the flow control valve 54 of the indivedual pipe arrangements 46 of high pressure.Flow control valve 54 flows to exert pressure to the working gas of the indivedual pipe arrangements 46 of high pressure and loses Δ P1.Therefore, in the expanding chamber 34 of refrigeration machine 14, supply with and have the working gas with pressure P+Δ P-Δ P1.
When expanding chamber 34 is connected in the indivedual pipe arrangement 52 of low pressure, expands and carry out PV acting at expanding chamber 34 mesohigh working gas, in refrigeration machine 14, producing cold energy.Working gas is decompressed to pressure P from pressure P+Δ P-Δ P1.Be that the pressure of inspiration(Pi) of expanding chamber 34 and the differential pressure of pressure at expulsion are Δ P-Δ P1, this be shown Δ P2(in following table, Δ P2=Δ P-Δ P1).
Operating on low voltage gas is discharged to low pressure line 40 from expanding chamber 34.Operating on low voltage gas collaborates at low pressure branching portion 50 by the indivedual pipe arrangements 52 of low pressure from refrigeration machine 14.Operating on low voltage gas turns back to compressor 12 by primary low pipe arrangement 48.So, the operating on low voltage gas that has a pressure P is recovered to compressor 12 from low pressure line 40.The working gas of compressor 12 pressure recoveries, and boost to pressure P+Δ P.The high-pressure working gas so obtaining is supplied to refrigeration machine 14 from compressor 12 again.
Conventionally, the refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine and the differential pressure of the pressure of inspiration(Pi) of expanding chamber and pressure at expulsion and the volume of expanding chamber are long-pending, i.e. PV acting relevant (ideal case is consistent).In typical refrigeration machine, can control refrigerating capacity and regulate chilling temperature by changing thermal cycle frequency.This adjusts expanding chamber volume V in conceptive being equivalent in the PV of refrigeration machine acting.
On the other hand, the design of present embodiment based on adjust differential pressure P in the PV of refrigeration machine 14 acting.The refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine 14 is relevant with the long-pending Δ P2V of the volume V of the pressure of inspiration(Pi) of expanding chamber 34 and the differential pressure Δ P2 of pressure at expulsion and expanding chamber 34.The differential pressure Δ P2 of expanding chamber 34, as above-mentioned, determines according to the pressure loss Δ P1 of the differential pressure Δ P of compressor 12 and flow control valve 54.Therefore,, by changing pressure loss Δ P1, can control the refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine 14 and regulate chilling temperature.
If reduce the aperture of certain flow control valve 54, pressure loss Δ P1 becomes large.Thus, the differential pressure Δ P2(=Δ P-Δ P1 of the expanding chamber 34 of the refrigeration machine 14 corresponding with this flow control valve 54) diminish with complimentary fashion, the PV acting of this refrigeration machine 14 reduces.Therefore, the refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine 14 diminishes, and refrigeration machine 14 heats up.On the contrary, if the aperture of enlargement discharge control valve 54, pressure loss Δ P1 diminishes.Thus, the differential pressure Δ P2 of expanding chamber 34 becomes large with complimentary fashion, and the PV acting of refrigeration machine 14 increases.Therefore, it is large that the refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine 14 becomes, and refrigeration machine 14 is lowered the temperature.
Compressor 12 is common gas source in multiple refrigeration machines 14, and therefore the differential pressure Δ P of compressor 12 is also common in multiple refrigeration machines 14.Therefore, the adjustment of compressor differential pressure can't realize other temperature control of refrigeration machine 14.But, according to present embodiment, can, by the pressure loss Δ P1 of the flow control valve of each refrigeration machine 14 54, therefore can control respectively the refrigerating capacity of multiple refrigeration machines 14.
According to present embodiment, can provide a kind of new temperature to regulate control mode to replace to change this existing temperature adjusting control mode of thermal cycle frequency of refrigeration machine.This new mode can realize so that this simple structure of flow control valve 54 to be set on gas piping 16, therefore may be favourable aspect cost compared with existing mode.
And, according to present embodiment, without the thermal cycle frequency that changes refrigeration machine 14, therefore can provide a kind of ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10 of the refrigeration machine 14 that does not possess frequency converter.Refrigeration machine 14 does not have frequency converter, thus the noise not causing because of frequency converter.Therefore, ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10 is suitable for requirement and falls low noise device, and for example nuclear magnetic resonance image device is cooling.
In present embodiment, the differential pressure constant control of the flow-control of gas piping 16 and compressor is used in conjunction with.This plays the effect of the energy-efficient performance that improves ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10.Hour, working gas becomes and is difficult to flow through gas piping 16 aperture of flow control valve 54, and therefore the differential pressure of compressor 12 increases.Thus, the running frequency of compressor 12 declines, so that differential pressure is returned to desired value.So can reduce the power consumption of compressor 12.Thus, while reducing flow control valve 54 in order to reduce the remaining refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine 14, can suppress the power consumption of compressor 12.On the contrary, open as required flow control valve 54, can strengthen thus the refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine 14, and improve the running frequency of compressor 12.Compared with when compressor 12 is stably moved with high-frequency, can reduce the power consumption of compressor 12.
While bypass passageways being set between the high-pressure side of compressor and low-pressure side, the energy consuming for compressive flow crosses the gases at high pressure of bypass passageways can't contribute to the refrigerating capacity of refrigeration machine.On the other hand, according to present embodiment, ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10 does not have this bypass passageways, does not exist the energy being produced by bypass passageways to consume.This is also conducive to energy-conservation.
Fig. 2 is the flow chart of the control method for the related ultra-low temperature refrigerating device of one embodiment of the present invention 10 is described.The method is for example carried out by temperature control part 62.As shown, start the operation (S10) of ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10.Use common compressor 12, multiple refrigeration machines 14 move simultaneously.
This control method possesses the entirety control (S12) of multiple refrigeration machines 14 and the unit control (S14) of refrigeration machine 14.Entirety is controlled and is comprised the chilling temperature of monitoring respectively multiple refrigeration machines 14, for example, approaches from initial temperature (room temperature) to target temperature simultaneously.In entirety control, flow control valve 54 is all set as certain aperture (for example standard-sized sheet).When arbitrary refrigeration machine 14 reaches target temperature, temperature control part 62 finishes entirety control and is converted to unit control.Unit control comprise to multiple refrigeration machines 14 respectively the pressure loss of corresponding single stream control respectively.In unit control, flow control valve 54 is controlled.That is to say that it is rough temperature adjustment that entirety is controlled, unit control is accurate temperature adjustment.In addition, temperature control part 62 also can be carried out unit control when bringing into operation ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10.
For example, entirety control in any of multiple refrigeration machines 14 be cooled to below target temperature.When the refrigeration machine 14 of the highest temperature is cooled to target temperature, temperature control part 62 finishes entirety control and is converted to unit control.Now, other refrigeration machines 14 are cooled than more low temperature of target temperature.In unit control, by reducing the aperture of flow control valve 54, the chilling temperature of corresponding refrigeration machine 14 is warming up to target temperature.So, multiple refrigeration machines 14 can be cooled to respectively to target temperature.
Because of the main causes such as the position relationship between individual difference and compressor 12 and the refrigeration machine 14 of refrigeration machine 14, the deviation that likely produces in service of refrigeration machine 14.For example, likely, between refrigeration machine 14, on chilling temperature, produce difference.By the unit control of refrigeration machine 14, can alleviate the deviation of this operation.
Above, describe the present invention based on embodiment.But the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned embodiment, can carry out various design changes, can implement various variation, and such variation is also within the scope of the present invention, this is understandable to those skilled in the art.
In above-mentioned embodiment, ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10 possesses 1 compressor 12.But ultra-low temperature refrigerating device 10 also can possess the working gas source with multiple compressors 12.Now, multiple compressors 12 also can be connected in parallel with respect to multiple refrigeration machines 14., gas piping 16 also can be configured to multiple compressors 12 and be connected in parallel in arbitrary refrigeration machine in multiple refrigeration machines 14.For example, gas piping 16 can possess main high press fit pipe 42 and primary low pipe arrangement 48 in each compressor 12, and main high press fit pipe 42 and primary low pipe arrangement 48 are connected with high pressure branching portion 44 and low pressure branching portion 50 respectively.Therefore, gas piping 16 also can possess multiple main high press fit pipes 42 and primary low pipe arrangement 48, high pressure branching portion 44 and low pressure branching portion 50 and the indivedual pipe arrangements 46 of multiple high pressure and the indivedual pipe arrangements 52 of low pressure.
